An exceptional and deceptively spacious chalet bungalow, set in an idyllic location with beautiful countryside views. Offering far more than first meets the eye, this unique home has been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully improved throughout, providing versatile accommodation ideal for a variety of buyers. The ground floor boasts a generous lounge, a separate dining room which could also be used as an additional bedroom, and an impressive 28'5" living room, creating plenty of space for both relaxing and entertaining. There is also a well-proportioned kitchen/breakfast room, a spacious principal bedroom with en-suite facilities, and a stunning orangery with a glazed roof, allowing natural light to flood in while enjoying views across the garden.

Externally, the property continues to impress, with a paved driveway providing ample off-road parking, a garage and additional sheds offering useful storage. A charming storm porch with log storage adds further character and practicality. The mature rear garden is a real highlight, backing directly onto horse paddocks and enjoying far-reaching countryside views, creating a peaceful and private setting to sit back and unwind. The orangery provides the perfect spot to appreciate this lovely outlook throughout the seasons, making the garden and surrounding landscape a wonderful extension of the living space.

One of the property's most exciting features is the exceptionally large loft space within the eaves, which already benefits from windows and offers fantastic potential for those looking to create further accommodation, a home office, hobby room or additional bedrooms, subject to the necessary planning permissions and building regulations. The generous proportions of this space provide an excellent opportunity for a new owner to explore the possibilities and tailor the property to their own needs. Combining substantial existing accommodation, a beautiful setting and scope for further enhancement, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a truly special home that must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
